If you are a participant or reader of the forum I host, The Multiracial Activist Forum and Chat, be advised that Prospero (the company housing the forum) is experiencing hardware problems. According to Prospero Technical Support:
Since 12:30 pm ET today, Prospero has been experiencing a hardware problem that is affecting some, but not all, forums on our platform. One of our database disks has a hardware failure, which means that forums using that database server are also down. Our database vendor is currently working on the problem, and we expect a report from them soon.
Hopefully this issue will resolved soon and everyone will regain access to The Multiracial Activist Forum and Chat. In the meantime, thank you for your patience.
